UI/UX Design And Development Services

What are UI and UX services?

Have you been thinking about the difference between UX design and UI design? If yes, then you’re not alone. Often confused with each other, they are two very different things. UX design means user experience design, whereas UI stands for “user interface design.” Both of these are essential to a product and work closely together. But regardless of their similarity in professional roles, their jobs are quite different.

What is user experience (UX) design?

User experience design is when you put the needs of humans first when designing a product. In our context, we are talking about applications. These can be mobile or websites also. Fictive Studios, number one in app development, has classy UX designs to choose from so that your app stays the best.

Please note that UX applies to anything that can be experienced—by it, a visit to a shop, a website, or a coffee machine. The “user experience” points towards the faceoff between the user and a product or service. User experience design considers all the different elements that shape this experience. Fictive Studios will design the perfect UX for you, and that too in a concise amount of time.

What does UX design involve?

A UX designer contemplates the experience, how it makes the person feel, and the ease with which the desired tasks can be accomplished. They also think and do task analyses to see how users perform tasks in a user flow.

For example: What is the level of ease in the checkout process when shopping online using ecommerce platforms? How easy is it for you to grab the coins in the game? Does your fitness app make managing your weight problems and calorie intake easy?

The primary purpose of UX design is to build facilitating, relevant, and all-around ‘cool’ efficient experiences for the operator.

The key points about UX that you should know are mentioned below:

User experience design is the activity of developing and boosting the quality of a two-way process between a user and all facets of a company.
User experience design is a non-digital concept (cognitive science) mainly used in digital industries.
UX design is certainly NOT concerning visuals; it points towards the overall feel of the experience.

UX tasks and responsibilities

So now we somewhat know what’s the job of the UX designer—but how does this relate to everyday tasks? Let’s discuss an example of a UX designer’s typical duties and responsibilities.

Product structure and strategy
Customer analysis and user research
Competitor analysis
Content development

Wireframing and prototyping

Prototyping
Testing and iteration
Development planning
Content developmentWireframing

Execution and Analytics

Tracking Goals and Integration

So, half project manager, part marketer, half designer, the UX role has deep roots, is challenging, and dynamic.

To our surprise, the job of the UX designer is different depending on the type of organization they’re employed in.

What is user interface (UI) design?

Although it is an older and more crowded field, the question “What is user interface design?” is tough to answer because of its wide variety of misunderstandings.

When we talk about user experience, it is a culmination of tasks pointing towards optimizing a product for results-based and enjoyable use, but user interface design is a little additional; the feel, the presentation, the look, and the interactivity of a product.

But like UX, it is very easily confused by even the most prominent industries that hire UI designers—to the limit that some job posts often refer to the profession as entirely different.

UX is not always digital, whereas user interface design is strictly a digital term related to technology. At Fictive Studios, we do more than extra to satisfy you with your app's ideal UI design.A user interface is the point of contact between the person and a digital device or product—like the touchscreen on your iPad or the touchpad you use to select what kind of function you want from a machine.

Concerning websites and apps, UI design considers the product's look, feel, and interactivity. The main thing is that a product's user interface is as intuitive as possible, which means taking caution while considering each visual, interactive element the user might encounter.

A UI designer will think about color schemes, icons and buttons, typography and spacing, imagery, and responsive design.

What does UI design involve?

Like its brother, user experience design, user interface design is a multi-faceted and challenging role. It is guilty for the transference of a product’s development, research, content, and layout into an attractive, guiding, and responsive user experience.

What UI design is about

UI design is a purely digital practice. It considers all a product interface's visual, interactive elements—including buttons and responsive design: icons, spacing, typography, and color schemes.
User Interface design aims to visually guide the person through a product’s interface. It’s all about creating an intuitive experience that doesn’t require the user to work that hard!
User Interface design takes the business’ powers and visual assets to a product’s interface, ensuring the design has a lovely ambiance and is consistent, coherent, and aesthetically pleasing.

UI tasks and responsibilities

If you are interested in building spectacular user experiences but regard yourself as a more visual guy, you may be more of a UI design person.

The look and feel of the product can be done by

Customer analysis
Branding and graphic development
User guides and storylines
Design research

Responsiveness and interactivity

UI prototyping
Interactivity and animation
Implementation with developer
Adaptation to all device screen sizes

As an interactive person, the UI role is essential to any digital display and, for customers, a key feature to trusting a brand. While the business itself is never solely the burden of the UI designer, its translation to the product is.

While UX does not need coding, UI is a role that, as time progresses, will rely on as part of building interactive interfaces, with “UI developer” beginning to appear as a role in companies.

Now that you have a detailed definition of both UX and UI, let’s discuss the critical differences between the two.

Understanding their key differences

The significant difference to keep in mind is this: UX design is everything about the overall feel of the experience, while UI design is all about how the product’s interfaces’ visuals are and function.

A User experience designer takes note of the whole path of the user to solve a particular problem; what steps do they take? What tasks do they need to complete? How straightforward is the experience?

Much of their work points toward finding out what kinds of problems and pain points users come up against and how a specific product might solve them. They’ll do detailed user research to determine who the target audience is and their needs concerning a particular product.

Fictive Studios knows both UI and UX and what is what. It can differentiate between them very quickly. That is why we can set up your app with the perfect experience and visuals.

With the outline of the product figured out, the UI designer steps in to bring it into existence. The UI designer considers all the visual aspects of the user’s journey, including all the individual screens and touchpoints the user might encounter, tapping a button, scrolling down a page, or swiping through an image gallery.

While the User Experience person sketches out the journey, the User Interface designer focuses on all the information that makes this journey possible. That’s not to say that UI design is all about visuals; UI people significantly impact whether or not a product is accessible and inclusive.

Important Points To Know

UX design is about identifying and solving user problems; UI design is about creating intuitive, aesthetically pleasing, interactive interfaces.
UX design usually comes first in the product development process, followed by UI. The UX designer maps out the bare bones of the user journey; the UI designer then fills it in with visual and interactive elements.
UX can apply to any product, service, or experience; UI is specific to digital products and experiences.

Why Fictive Studios?

UX and UI are often mistaken for one another. But the main difference is that UX refers to the feel or experience of the app or website, whereas UI is the font, icons, and other visuals used in the app or website. UX is, in theory, non-related to digital things but applies everywhere where a person experiences something. On the other hand, UI is more used with digital items. Fictive Studios is one of the oldest UI UX design development companies in the USA. Our dedicated and talented team can provide you with some of the best user experience design services that will blow everyone away, whether you or a customer of yours.

Building The Future One Line Of Code At A Time

Requirements Gathering

The project team will identify and document the requirements for the completion of the project, including functional, technical, and non-functional requirements. The process involves conducting stakeholder interviews, analyzing existing systems, and reviewing industry standards and best practices.

Design And Architecture

Once the requirements are gathered and documented, our project team will initiate the design and architecture phase. This involves creating high-level mobile app designs, including technical components, network architecture, security requirements, and data flow diagrams.

Development And Coding

After the design and architecture phase, the project team will begin developing the software and coding the mobile app. This includes unit testing, integration testing, and debugging to ensure the code meets the requirements and is free of bugs.

Quality Assurance And Testing

In this phase, the project team will conduct various types of testing to ensure the mobile app meets the requirements and complies with high-quality standards. This includes functional testing, performance testing, security testing, and user acceptance testing.

Deployment And Implementation

Once the mobile app has been tested and verified, the project team will begin the deployment and implementation phase. This involves installing the software, configuring hardware and network components, and migrating data from existing systems to the new solution.

Monitoring And Maintenance

After the mobile app is deployed, the project team will continue to monitor and maintain the system to ensure it performs optimally and meets ongoing business needs. This includes conducting regular system updates, monitoring app performance and security, and addressing recurring issues or bugs.

Enhancements And Upgrades

As the business needs to evolve, the mobile app will require enhancements or upgrades to keep up with the new trends. The project team will work with stakeholders to identify these needs and create a plan for implementing the changes.

Taking on an app seemed like too big of a venture and a friend strongly recommended I consult with the Fictive Studios. I am glad we finally took their advice. The team were extremely helpful and patient as we were new to the process of application development, we had many, so many questions. They calmed any hesitation and relieved any doubt that previously existed. The best part of my experience was that they found solutions to integrate our ideas and create a seamless experience.

James Robert

This is my first app design and I had no idea what I was doing, Seth and his team made me feel heard and comfortable. I really appreciate the fact that they walked me through this life changing experience from start to finish. I will definitely be doing my next app with them in the future, no question. Thank you, Seth and team!!

Fictive Studios is amazing! They have been with us every step of the way developing our app. They help in any way possible even giving their own input and ideas (which is extremely helpful). Gabriella, our project manager has been more than exceptional handling our app in its final stages and willing to help and work with us on whatever we need! I 12/10 would recommend Fictive Studios to anyone.

I couldn't be more pleased with the way my website turned out. I recently got engaged with Fictive Studios to have my website re-designed, and the results are fantastic. The project management abilities were outstanding, and they finished every element of the work while keeping my vision in mind. The design concept they've come up with has really blown me away. From the first time we met, I had a strong feeling about them. They took the patience to respond to each of my requirements and jotted down my requirements. Fictive Studios ensured that the final product was desirable, and I'm pleased I went with them for the job.

Last month, I had the great experience of working with Fictive Studios on a marketing-based animation for my newly-launched company. Their entire staff is incredible, and they all had the same goal in mind: to provide me with exactly what I asked for. Through their uttermost commitment, they took my germ of an idea and turned it into bloom. They went above and above my preconceived notions and delivered everything on time. The character design, animation, and storytelling were all exceptional. They are a fantastic firm to deal with, and I strongly suggest their services.

Beverly Smith

Hi my name is Jose Rivera and I have been working with Fictive Studios since August. My idea was first entertained by Zack Daniel who pointed me in the direction of Jay Bradley a senior in his department, who also appointed me seniors for my app. Then came Eric Rediker who is getting the baton and finishing the race as a true gold medalist. As Eric would say, wait there's more! pricing is phenomenal, and their efforts surpass their promises. Not only developing my app, but inventing it!!!! Eric always comes up with fresh new ideas, and always responds promptly. I couldn't have picked a better person than Eric Rediker for my project his passion matches my own.
